    Or should I say "Ugly"? They made Baylor look like a title contender. Baylor ran the ball at will and their D made K-State look confused and helpless. With Oregon losing also, it's starting to look like Alabama (or another SEC team) vs Notre Dame (if they don't lose at USC next week) in the title game.

    Something about that yard light looks suspicious...

    Nobody cares about a ML sighting in MO - I guess the 3 pages here were written by "nobodies", including yourself. I'll see if I can find a pic of a UFO sighting over Branson.

    BTW, nice pic of a beautiful fish, look at that kype on the lower jaw, you know what he's getting ready to do (if he hasn't already done it).

    I've always thought they should go to catch and release laws on the browns, doesn't hurt to take a limit of stocker rainbows home, but release the browns. A couple of years ago AGFC shocked up a 25 lb, brown from below Beaver, they said they've seen that fish a few times when doing thier annual surveys and it's always in the same hole (they did not specify where exactly). But in spite of all the pressure, there's some big ones in there.

    As I said before, there's no point in faking bigfoot, UFO's etc. There are practical jokers in this world. What is the white stuff? Reflection from the flash? Snow? Frost? Lint? Did MDC send someone out to check the location, to verify the location where the pic was taken? If not, that photo could have been taken anywhere. I'm not denying there's ML's in MO, but until given some reasonable proof, I'm not going to agee that the photo proves there's a ML wandering around Branson.

    Nobody's got anything to gain from faking bigfoot, but they do it. That image looks suspicious to me also.

    I agree, looks like a fat beagle wearing a pig mask.

    Fished out of Jeb's boat yesterday, we launched at 0600 and fished until 1300. We found a good jig bite early on steep, chunk rock banks, the bass being for the most part right up on the bank. We also picked up a couple on the spinner bait whenever there was a slight breeze to riffle the water. later in the morning it started to get really tough, flat calm, no wind, bright blue sunny skies, just tough conditions. We ended up with around 15 or so, all in the 13-15" range. Foliage is pretty much done, wind blew all the leaves off last week.

    Jeb and I fished it yesterday, we caught short of 30 bass, several in the 2.5-3.5 lb. range. Curly tailed worms have been working for us. I suggest if you're going Saturday to get there early, yesterday the parking lot filled up by late morning. The lake is getting a lot of pressure this year, seems to be more boats out there than normal.

    Very nice!

    Well if there's going to be back room shananigans, it wouldn't surprise me if the boys in the back room advance the cause of Notre Dame. Notre Dame vs Alabama? It would not surprise me. From a ratings standpoint I would think the network executives would rather see AL vs ND rather than K State vs Oregon. I think from a football standpoint, K State vs Oregon would be a better game than AL vs ND.
  13. Quillback
    If KState, Oregon and ND all lose a game between now and the end of the year, it will create a BCS mess. Is it next year they begin the 4 team playoff? I could see a case where we're going to wish the playoff started this year.

    I've got a TFO 665, good value rod, I don't fish it much as I've become a fan of longer rods, and it's not the most sensitive rod for bottom dragging t-rigs or c-rigs. But for pitching jigs it works fine. Drew if you lived closer I'd be happy to let you borrow it for a test drive as it just sits on my rack unused right now.
  15. Quillback
    That is a nice mount, ever get any woodies? I would think that would be a nice one to have on the wall also.

    You'll get a lot of opinions on this subject, but I've gone over to floro for the most part except for topwaters and Spinner baits which I use mono for. I love the sensitivy of floro. Gotta tie good knots, and check for abrasion and kinks as floro is pretty unforgiving, but other than that I'm happy with it.
  17. Quillback
    Yeah I'd be fine with the Irish in the title game. And Oregon does have a tough row to hoe, if I was a betting man, I'd bet they will lose one of their remaining games.

    The Tide Ebbs..

    Quillback posted a topic in Sports

    Saw the 2nd half of the A&M vs Tide game. Great game, I thought the Tide would pull it out, but a goal line interception and an offsides call on an A&M punt did them in. Way is open for a K-State/Oregon title game, but Oregon has 2 tough games left against Stanford and Oregon State, and K State has Baylor and Texas on the schedule.

    Very nice! Thanks for the report!

    I've become a big jerkbait fan the last few years. They should start working soon, caught my PB, 9.5 lbs. on a McRip and my fishing buddy Jeb caught an 8 lb. last winter on an RC Lucky-E-Strike jerkbait. McSticks, McRips (run a little deeper than a McStick), Luck-Strike RC, IMA Flits, Lucky Craft Pointers, and Lucky Craft Bevy Shads (for a smaller profile). On the local lakes here in BV, fish will suspend over brushpiles in the winter, find the right brushpile and you can get a dozen bass out of it. Get yourself a good lure retriever also.

    Saw this as I was browsing rods today, pretty good deal on a lightly used rod, I think these folks also warranty their used rods. http://www.americanlegacyfishing.com/used-casting-rod-g-loomis-cbr-855-glx-1.html It's a 782C IMX, dunno why the link has 855 GLX in it.

    I'm getting a little concerned about that weather station. Right now it shows east wind at 7 MPH, but the weather channel.com shows wind in Rogers at 13 MPH out of the south with gusts to 18.
  23. Quillback
    Yeah I saw the rating, question is whether I believe it. But if you pick one up, let us know how it does throwing a 1/4 oz lure.
  24. Quillback
    Sounds like a good choice, I might be a little leery about using a MH for fishing weightless plastics, but Senkos ought to fit into the weight range listed. Are you fishing tight quarters, no need for long casts? Just asking as I'm not a big fan of 6' casting rods, like the longer ones for casting distance. But I'm standing on the deck of a bass boat and lake fishing all the time. It's hard to know how a rod will perform without actually fishing one.

    Most of the large coves and some of the smaller ones on Beaver have feeder creeks, usually in the far back of the cove. Many of them are dry this year because of the drought, but we're supposed to get some good rain Sunday, so we should see some runoff from the creeks. A lot of the experts will tell you that when you get runoff this time of year that stains the water in the coves, that's where you want to be fishing. We just don't want so much rain that Beaver turns coffee brown.
